I have had mates instruct at that college. It does have very high standards and their instructors are very experienced.
Flying in Oz is cheap (relative to the UK). Remember though, to bring the licence back to UK it is unbelievably expensive. You'll have to do all the exams again. At least now you'll get some credit for the IR.....

I have not trained with them but The College is suppost to be very good and the last I heard they had approval for JAA licences. They also have a training centre (for the general public) is not much more than your average flying club using the big boys toys.

Good luck, might see you in the Parafield play ground!
